Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees of
USAA S&P 500 Index Fund

We have examined management's assertion, included in the accompanying Management Statement Regarding Compliance With Certain Provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940, that the USAA S&P 500 Index Fund (the Fund) complied with the requirements of subsections (b) and (c) of rule 17f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Act) as of August 31, 2012. Management is responsible for the Fund's compliance with those requirements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management's assertion about the Fund's compliance based on our examination.

Our examination was conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Fund's compliance with those requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. Included among our procedures were the following tests performed as of August 31, 2012 and with respect to agreement of security purchases and sales, for the period from May 31, 2012 (the date of our last examination), through August 31, 2012:

o Confirmation of all securities held by institutions in book entry form (The Depository Trust Company);

o Confirmation of all securities hypothecated, pledged, placed in escrow or out for transfer with brokers, pledgees or transfer agents;

o Reconciliation of all such securities to the books and records of the Fund and the Custodian, Northern Trust;

o Confirmation of all open future positions with brokers; and

o Agreement of five security purchases and five security sales or maturities since our last report from the books and records of the Fund to broker confirmations.

We believe that our examination provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our examination does not provide a legal determination on the Fund's compliance with specified requirements.

In our opinion, management's assertion that the USAA S&P 500 Index Fund complied with the requirements of subsections (b) and (c) of rule 17f-2 of the Act as of August 31, 2012, with respect to securities reflected in the investment account of the Fund is fairly stated, in all material respects.


This report is intended solely for the information and use of management and the Board of Trustees of the USAA S&P 500 Index Fund and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

Based on this evaluation, we assert that the Fund was in compliance with the requirements of subsections (b) and (c) of rule 17f-2 of the Act as of August 31, 2012 and from May 31, 2012 through August 31, 2012, with respect to securities reflected in the investment account of the Fund.
